"The Shadows of the Past!" Script by J.M. DeMatteis. Art by Ron Wilson (breakdowns) and Vince Colletta (finishes). Cover by Ron Wilson and John Beatty. It's an off-beat tale as the four men who have worn the red, white, and blue garb of Captain America join together to fight a common foe! The elder of the universe known as the Contemplator assembles (1) William Naslund formerly the Spirit of '76, (2) Jeff Mace formerly the Patriot, (3) William Burnside aka the Captain America of the 50's, and (4) Steve Rogers; and sends them to an alternative reality where cyborgs rule the Earth! To win freedom for this enslaved world, the four Sentinels of Liberty must defeat its android ruler called Adam II. A classic battle of man vs. machine! In this strange time and place, will human spirit and courage triumph over scientific steel and might? Appearances by the Invaders, Jack Monroe (aka Nomad), and Scarecrow. Flashback cameos by Bucky, Miss America, Toro, the original Human Torch, Sub-Mariner, and (golden age) Whizzer. (Notes: The Contemplator (aka Mister Buda) previously appeared in Marvel Treasury Special (featuring Captain America) #1 (published in 1976); and returns in Quasar 37. Jeff Mace appears next in Captain America 284.) 48 pages. Cover price $1.00.
